Discussion: Dipodini. Shenbrot et al. (1995) and Zazhigin and Lopatin (2001) included the extinct Sminthoides (late Miocene to late Pliocene of Asia), but McKenna and Bell (1997) retained it as a separate genus in Dipodinae . For synonyms see Ellerman and Morrison-Scott (1951), McKenna and Bell (1997), and Zazhigin and Lopatin (2001).
